Teed was a member of the Jonathan Club and the Sons of the American Revolution. He was the first potentate of Los Angeles's Al Malaikah Temple of the Order of the Shrine, and it was he who suggested the name for the temple, meaning "The Angels."[2] In 1900 Teed was secretary of the Sixth District Agricultural Association, which had charge of Agricultural Park.[3] In 1898 he was stamp clerk in the revenue department for Los Angeles for the Collector of Internal Revenue.[4] In the same year, he was named by Fred Eaton of the Republican City Central Committee as one of the committee members who would meet with other organizations to "take preliminary steps toward the framing of a new city charter."[5] He died at California Hospital in Los Angeles on August 3, 1916, "after a prolonged illness,"[6] Teed left $4,000 for the purchase of a pipe organ for Los Angeles Commandery, No. 9, Knights Templar, to be known as the Teed Memorial Organ.[7] References1. ^Chronological Record of Los Angeles City Officials 1850–1938, Municipal Reference Library, March 1938, reprinted 1946 {{s-start}}{{succession box | before = William Whipple Robinson | title = Los Angeles City Auditor | years = 1886—1888 | after = M.
